' GAS-BURNER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 365,606, dated June 28,1887.

Application filed September 22, 1886. Serial No. 214,290. (No model.)

To aZZ whom it may concern: Be it known that I, DAVID R. KLINE, acitizen of the United States, and residing at Ridgway, in the county ofElk and Stateof Pennsylvania, have invented certain usel'ul Improvementsin Natural-Gas Burners, of which the following is a specification.

pipe, but which may be'a straight pipe or elbow. From this there risesashort vertical tube, B, around which and upon the edge of the T-coupling there is firmly seated by a screw thread, 8, a circular baseplate, 0. Upon the outer edge of the base-plate there rests the loweredge of a cylindrical cap, D. When this cap is supported upon thebaseplate 0, the top of the tube Bapproaches quite closely to the topplate of the cap, and, projecting downwardly from this top plate andformed on or cast with the plate, is a pendent flange or skirt, a, whichdescends around the upper end of the tube. From the same plate thereproject downwardly three or more rods or studs, b, which passthroughholes 0 in the base-plate O and serve to hold the detachable cap uponthe base-plate in proper central position, but at the same time permitthe cap to be easily lifted off to inspect or clean the burner. cap areformed a series of holes, a, and in the topare also holes 01, throughwhich two sets of holes the commingled and evenly-heated air and gasissue and burn with a blue flame of intense heat As the gas with more orless Through the cylindrical sides of the air passes into the tube Bfrom the servicepipe below, it is brought first in contact with the hottop plate of the cap and thence passes down and around the pendent skirtor flange a,'being thereby held for a longer time in contact with thehot metal, which heats it more highly and secures a more perfectcombustion when it issues from the cap through the jetholes.

In defining my invention with greater clearness, I would state that I amaware that gasburners of an approximate structure have heretofore beenpatented.

My invention is peculiar and distinctive in the following respects: Theinlet-pipe A is formed with a nipple that is screw-threaded upon theinside to receive-the tube B, and is also screw-threaded upon theoutside to receive.the internal screw-thread of the disk 0, while thecap D, with its pendent flange, is made separately and cast in onepiece, and is detachably held upon the supporting-base 0. It will thusbe perceived that all the parts of the burner are firmly but detachablyconnected together, and are mounted and sustained upon the inlet-pipe.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, isp The combination of the inlet-pipe having anipple screw-threaded both upon the inner and outer sides, the tube B,screwed into the inner thread of the nipple, the disk 0, screwed uponthe outer thread of the nipple, and the detachable cap D, with pendentflange a, supported upon the disk 0, and provided with holes andfastening devices, substantially as shown and described.
